Sunday Funday

Dressing up 5 days out of the week is fun, but I will always be a sneaker girl at heart.

I decided to take advantage of my days off of work and dress down into something comfy. Enjoy my weekend photos and hope you all are having a beautiful weekend!

Mix & Match in the Rain

Good afternoon beauties!

Excuse the horrible lighting and the not so great photos...I had a mini photo-shoot in the rain this morning :) This post is in regards to Saturday's post on recycling pieces and getting creative. Here are a few different looks with the same skirts...yes skirts.  If you look at the photo above, the skirt to the right which is a body hugging (Papaya) skirt is under the pleated skirt to the left (Thrifted).  The reason for layering up the skirts is because the skirt to the left is sheer and has no lining, so instead of adding the lining, I decided to improvise while being able to play around with the different lengths underneath. I think every other week I'm going to post different looks around one item, so let me know what item you want to see next for next week :)

Spring Haul

You know that saying, "Work hard, play harder"....well I sure have been playing harder...in the stores :P Call me an addict, I just love my clothes and deserved a little retail therapy. The reason for this shopping celebration....I haven't even graduated yet and I just landed a great job that will become my career in the field that I am pursuing in!!!! So, I have to dress the role and on top of that, summer is around the corner...great excuse to go shopping right!?!?!  The one downer that I am terribly experiencing is not having enough space for all my new purchases which means....SPRING CLEANING!!!! It is very hard to part with amazing pieces because each piece of clothing has a memory to it whether we like it or not.  I told myself that if I am going to go on a shopping spree, that means I need to go on a cleaning spree and since I am moving back to good ole San Jose, I plan on selling some clothes online at the top of my blog.  If I am going to give my clothes away, I want to give it to someone who will actually take care of it and enjoy it.  Prices will be affordable so stay tuned for the opening of RIO's CLOSET hopefully in a couple of weeks :)  Have a beautiful sunny day!!!

Hair/Head Jewelry

(I do not own the photos above)

Nicole Richie has impeccable style and I absolutely adore the head pieces that she has been wearing lately (she looks amazing in everything!!!).  I think this look is perfect for the summer time and works well with any type of hair! Instead of purchasing head/hair jewelry at any store, I recommend to create your own one of a kind piece by using any unwanted/old necklaces, belts, beads etc.  Here is a simple DIY by blogger All the good girls go to heaven.  I plan on creating one of these bad boys over the weekend, so check back soon to see my little creation :)
